Re: If you could pick your fragrances just out of 1 brand

Looking at my wardrobe the majority I have are either from Xerjoff or Creed, so Xerjoff easily wins for me out of those two.

Nio: This is my favourite from this line, so I use this for those special occasions, romantic evenings out with the mrs, or on those days where you just think what the heck, I like it so if I run out I'll have to get another bottle

Kobe: This is my any time of the day, fresh lift me up scent.

Uden: There's just something about this one that makes it so unusual, but in a good way. Along with Nio, this is a fragrance I've had loads of compliments whilst wearing, so I use it simply when I feel like a change from the other's I have.

Fiero: I mostly use this during the evening or on colder days, due to it being a spicy/aromatic citrus, that has a lovely warmth to it.

Derby EDT, elegant and floral with magnificent leather
Habit Rouge EDT: the great one I reach for when I can't decide on anything else!
Habit Rouge EDP (Beau Cavalier in North America): I love the agarwood
Shalimar EDP and EDT
Shalimar Eau Legere, sadly discontinued: wonderful vanilla
Jicky
Mouchoir de Monsieur: lavender with civet and a touch of vanilla

Re: If you could pick your fragrances just out of 1 brand

Creed so far, among houses I know.

The "indispensables" would be:

GIT
Windsor

To rotate according to weather and mood:

Tabarome Millesime (I must be the only one to like it more than the Vintage) - great winter scent
Original Vetiver (moderately hot weather)
OR Citrus Bigarrade (very hot weather - Bois de Cedrat or Selection Verte can be substituted under this chapter in different years)
"disappeared" love - Verveine Narcisse (no juice left)
RSLavender (only once in a blue moon)
Bois du Portugal (same - great fragrance, just not so much my style)

I am quite familiar with most of the other Creeds, including the female ones, but don't think I like them as much. There are some which I admire but I wouldn't wear.

There are a couple which give me headaches: SMW, Royal Delight, and Original Santal, for instance.

Us both.

The most consistently quality house I've yet encountered.

I agree with you. Their style satisfies me more than any other house does. Plus, they have a relatively large portfolio - so many scents to choose from. With the exception of MKK, I tend to use random SLs for random occasions. With MKK, I'm more selective over when I wear it.
